About the author
Established within the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1884, the Bureau of Animal Industry was a government agency rather than an individual author. It took over work previously handled by earlier federal veterinary efforts and became a major center for research, inspection, and disease control affecting cattle, hogs, and other livestock.
The bureau is especially remembered for advancing veterinary science and public health. Its staff worked on problems such as contagious animal diseases, meat inspection, and dairy and livestock standards, and its reports and bulletins were written to inform farmers, veterinarians, researchers, and policymakers.
When this name appears as the author of a book, it usually means the work was issued officially by the bureau or prepared by members of its staff. That makes these titles useful as historical documents of American agriculture, animal health, and early federal scientific administration.
